Introducing some of the brilliant work that was produced on Saturday 24th March 2012...
These creative ladies spent their Saturday learning new layout styles, designs and techniques and finding new ways to preserve memories in the form of... You guessed it! Scrapbooking. :o)
It looks like everyone who attended had as much of a creative and relaxing a day as we did. The work they created was beautiful! Well done everyone! :o)

So, I finally got around to getting new workshops up online, there are a few new ones, just waiting for confirmation of some more dates and I will be releasing a couple of repeats .. UTEE/Meltpot & Ranger weekend, so watch the website for more workshops as they are released ...
New ones include the Altered Technique Tag book ..I get the impression this one might fill up fast lol, We will be starting on a friday evening, over a glass of wine and some chocolate .. we will be altering a book , creating technique tags to go in it and writing on the opposite page of the book all about the actual technique, so how cool will that be ! tags, techniques and an altered book. So you get to do Friday evening, all day saturday 10-4 and all day suinday 10-4 too ! There is even a really nice B&B right across the road ... talk about making things easy !
you can see the workshop HERE

and here's a link to the B&B across the road Oldfield House
Just remember that our new venue is smaller and so workshops fill up more quickly !
Thanks for stopping by :o) x
